The earlier hose line advancement training in the day proved effective this evening as Company 1 and mutual aide were dispatched to the 500 Block of East Liberty Street for a reported house fire

Engine 1-2 dropped a supply line at the mid 400 block and arrived on the scene to find smoke showing from Side Alpha - first floor. It was reported that all occupants were out of the structure.

Engine 1-2 pulled an initial attack line as well as a back-up line while Engine 1-1’s crew were assigned fire attack. Tower 1 set up on Side A and threw multiple ladders to all four sides.

Crews made entry to find significant smoke and high heat in the living room and ultimately found fire in the kitchen. Engine 1-1’s crew put a quick knock on the fire and marking it under control within 3 minutes of arrival.

Squad 41 preformed primary and secondary searches of the structure while Ladder 42 set up on the C/D corner.
